SEAMLESS DRAWN BRASS TUBES, 



These Tubes were first manufactured in America in 
January, 1852, by the American Tube Works, Boston, 
and are identical with those known in England since 1848 
as " Green's Patent Tubes." The works of the company 
were erected for the express purpose of manufacturing 
Seamless Tubes, and their machinery is an improved dupli- 
cate of that long and successfully in operation in England. 

For Locomotive, Marine ■, Stationary Boiler, and Steam 
Fire Engine Flues, they have never been excelled for 
economy and durability, even considering difference in 
cost of metals. '•' ' « 

Coxdenser Tubes. 
For this purpose they are drawn, after being tinned in- 
side and outside, which hardens the coating, of Tin and 
adds much to its durability. 

Covered Iron Tubes. 
We draw our Seamless Brass Tubes over Iron Tubes, 
for purposes where great stiffness- is required : such as 
Hand Rail, Cemetery Rails, Pump Rod-, &c, saving cost 
in thickness of brass. 

Brass Lixed Irox Ti res. 

These Tubes arc extensively used for Pumps, especially 
Oil Well Pumps, Chambers, ^c. 

Tarkr Tubes* 

Our Patent Taper Tubes, for Hose Pipe and other pur- 
poses, are made of any 'dimension's desired, in quantity. 

Tubes to Order. 

For Gas or ornamental purposes made square, triangular, 
octagonal, rectangular, oval, flat, or irregular.

SEAMLESS DRAWN COPPER TUBES, 



After long and repeated trials at our works, we suc- 
ceeded in producing Seamless Copper Tubes identical (with 
exception of the metal) with our Seamless Brass Tubes, 
and received patents therefor from the United States. We 
now own, we believe, the only patents under which a tube 
is drawn from a cylindrical casting of Pure Copper. Pre- 
viouslv to our discovery of the means of casting a solid 
copper cylinder, what were called copper tubes were made 
by putting in a small quantity of alloy, but in such case 
the tubes would not work hot, but crack on being ham- 
mered at a red heat. Our tubes will work either hot or 
cold, in same manner as brazier's copper. We furnish 
our Seamless Copper Tubes at such prices that they are 
cheaper for use than the old-fashioned ones made of a 
sheet of copper and brazed ; and all the prominent copper- 
smiths find it so. 

We make all sizes in lengths to twenty feet. In order- 
ing state whether wanted soft to bend either in part, or 
whole length.

TO FIND WEIGHT OF COPPER TUBES, 



Add I 1 g to the following Tables of Weights of 
Brass Tubes. 



EXAMPLE. 

By the Tables a 2 in. Brims Tube, No. 13, Wire 
Gauge, weighs 2.10 pounds. 

Add $q, say 0.11, and it gives 2.21 pounds as 
the weight of a Copper Tube, 2 in. diameter, 13 
Wire Gauge.
